Red C Marketing: Turning a £1M Eurostar Success into a Scalable Growth Strategy

Connecting with Leading Travel and Finance Brands Through High-Impact Marketing Campaigns

Scaling Growth After Eurostar’s Success

After generating £1 million in sales for Eurostar in just one week, Red C Marketing wanted to capitalise on this momentum by expanding its client base. However, breaking into new markets, specifically the travel and finance sectors, required a structured and proactive approach.
They needed to:
Build credibility with travel brands and financial institutions.
Secure meetings with decision-makers in marketing, digital, and business development roles.
Position themselves as a go-to agency for SEO and performance-driven marketing in the finance industry.
Red C had a strong portfolio, but traditional outreach methods weren’t bringing in the high-value conversations they needed to consistently win new clients. That’s where Harper came in.

Leveraging Case Studies to Open Doors

Harper designed and launched two highly targeted outreach campaigns tailored to Red C’s ideal prospects in the travel and finance industries.
For the travel sector, Harper highlighted Red C’s success with brands like Eurostar, Jet2Holidays, and Co-op Travel, using compelling case studies to demonstrate ROI and expertise in increasing bookings.
For the finance sector, Harper positioned Red C as SEO experts who had helped Swinton Insurance, Thistle Insurance, and Police Mutual achieve page 1 rankings and increase organic traffic by 30% in a few months.
Key Outreach Tactics Included:
Email & LinkedIn Messaging – Personalised, industry-specific messaging that clearly communicated Red C’s expertise and proven success.
Laser-Focused Targeting – Reaching marketing and business leaders at top travel and financial organisations.
Data-Driven Iteration – Adjusting messaging based on response rates and engagement levels to optimise success.

High-Value Meetings with Industry Leaders

Harper’s strategic outreach secured meetings with leading brands in both target industries, including:
Travel & Hospitality: Caledonian Sleeper, Gold Medal, Chatsworth & The Devonshire Group
Finance & Insurance: Swinton Insurance, Thistle Insurance, Police Mutual
By strategically positioning Red C’s case studies and expertise, Harper ensured that Red C was speaking directly to decision-makers who were actively seeking marketing solutions, rather than wasting time on cold outreach with low intent prospects.

New Business Opportunities and Market Expansion

Secured Meetings – Red C gained high-value conversations with top brands in the travel and finance sectors.
Increased Brand Recognition – Their Eurostar case study became a major door-opener, helping to build credibility and trust quickly.
Diversified Client Pipeline – The outreach efforts helped Red C move beyond existing clients and expand into new markets with consistent business opportunities.
